Murder suspect Burroughs surrenders and is returned to jail after bail revoked

MOBILE, Alabama -- Cedric Burroughs, the murder suspect who bailed out of jail late Monday night on unrelated drug charges, surrendered at Mobile County Metro Jail tonight after his bail was revoked, authorities said.

Burroughs, 19, is charged with murder in connection with the Sept. 11, 2011, shooting death of 26-year-old Darryl Casher, police said. He was released on $250,000 bail on Sept. 16 after a court hearing, according to Press-Register archives.

Prichard police arrested Burroughs on 4 drug-related charges late Monday, but the 19-year-old was able to bail out of jail on those charges despite a Mobile County District Attorney's policy calling for bail revocation on suspects in serious crimes if they re-offend while out on bail.
